I'd like help getting python to read from a file and display a steram of
text on a textcanvas. I'll fiure out the buttons later. I'd appreciate
any insights about regular gtk and guile-gtk. Or whichever GUI libraries
have the best python interface.

Hi Gary,

I'm a big fan of wxPython, i.e. wxWidgets for python. Way
cool and works on Windows as well (very cross-platform).

It works on a whole hosts of other platforms as well and not only Windows and freebsd. From it's wxwidgets website [1] -

"wxWidgets lets developers create applications for Win32, Mac OS X,
GTK+, X11, Motif, WinCE, and more using one codebase. It can be used
from languages such as C++, Python, Perl, and C#/.NET. Unlike other
cross-platform toolkits, wxWidgets applications look and feel native.
This is because wxWidgets uses the platform's own native controls rather
than emulating them. It's also extensive, free, open-source, and
mature."

And from wxpython website[2] -

"wxPython is a cross-platform toolkit. This means that the same program
will run on multiple platforms without modification. Currently supported
platforms are 32-bit Microsoft Windows, most Unix or unix-like systems,
and Macintosh OS X."
